Happy music made for happy times.

Sometimes I wish we could go back to those "unenlightened", innocent, simple times. Life was easy and breezy...and happy! Did I mention happy music makes for happy times?

Thanks for the memories Beach Boys!

I have always heard that it was either Aqua or Blue Moire finish. I couldn't help noticing that Dennis is using a Buck Rogers snare stand and a Rogers Hi hat. Also, his mounted top is upside down (check position of muffler knob). As far as the snare, I just can't see it that well...possibly a Super 99? The strainer is facing the camera and it looks to be the box shaped version.

Edit: From looking at other photos from the same period, it looks like the brass shell "Super 99".

Were you of draft age during those otherwise "happy times"? Some of us who were drafted or draft-eligible might differ. Some of our band mates who either, didn't return from Vietnam, or were never the same after being there might also differ. But, yes...for the most part the 60's were fun times.

I served, 23 years, but was a little to young for Viet Nam. Thank you for your service there.

I certainly didn't mean to derail this thread. I think, or hope, that most here know what I meant.

I didn't mean to hi-hack the thread either. I was fortunate to enlist in the Army reserves a few days before my draft notice arrived in the mail. I was able to finish my last year of college, go for basic training, and serve six years stateside. I consider myself to be very fortunate. Please excuse my diversion to mention that not everything was fun about the sixties--just most things.

I don't think the Precision Drum Company has any connection to Satin Flame wrap other than being a vendor of the product known as Rowlux. Here's an article about the manufacturer of the material that has been used for drum wraps as well as for other purposes. I talked with their representative at a trade show quite a few years ago

Hi leedybdp!

Are you referencing the post I made about PDC supplying Satin Flame Wrap for Star Trek?

Yes. I thought that you were inferring that Precision is the sole source of the product. I apologize if I misunderstood your post.

leedybdp... thanks for the clarification. And, yes, I was only mentioning that PDC supplied the wrap to Star Trek, not that they were the actual source.
